MOOD:
Got in a cat fight yesterday lol. Feeling it today didn’t go well I guess.
I aspire to be as unbothered as Butters.
He’s so chill. Butters looks like Buddha
Drove to Woodend for lunch. Nice to get out of the smoke and to avoid the doomscrolling. Now for slow horses and tackling mt washmore
That’s terrifying that recent ICU nurse dude being shot in the US.
What’s just as terrifying is how the admin / media over there are spinning it same w/ Good.
Just getting worse and worse.
I know it’s unhealthy to doomscroll but the more you read what’s happening over there… just can’t turn away.
F’n wild.
Pretty thankful to be here and not there atm.
There is a balance to be struck between doomscrolling and being aware of what’s happening. Knowing when to absorb the facts, and when to put the phone down. It’s depressing, but when good people choose to look the other way, it means the bad guys win. I hope Australia doesn’t go down the American path. I am grateful for the country we live in.
The outright straight face lying is absolutely terrifying.
My gfs mum, who is in America, got the news from sbs. It’s barely in their media.
the coverage of US politics leaves much to be desired
most of the big papers and tv are craven cowards who try to tell us it’s a normal government, that the gov just make mistakes
the big media hype up any and all negatives political policies and report trump’s spoken word as of it’s already set law
what is under reported is that nearly all the policies get struck down and aren’t enacted at all
foreign policy and security are the two main problems, loss of expertise is also a problem
I think the most important thing the US needs to do is reconcile city folk and country folk, both have to accept that America comprises different beliefs and ways of living and that all are equally valid ( as long as they are constitutional ( racism is not constitutional ) )
I’m fucking dying in this heat.
it’s fairly mild here, only 23
why is it so hot for you?
26°c outside. 30°c inside. I have a cross breeze going but it’s just not consistent. I’ve now taken to the outside where I’m sneezing and about to be eaten. Beer is bringing much relief to this menopausal woman.
I hope you all are having a good long weekend
I’m off my face and
I don’t where my home is
Imma know is
where to float is …
I’m off my face
He’s my all time
favourite home
Such tasty guacamole
Holy shit girl. Find your home. Lol.
Ain’t no sunshine with no… home…
And you too. Yesterday and today didn’t do much. Tomorrow off to a friends places for BBQ. I have been assigned to bring a salad, which I’ll do in the morning.
Very interested to know what salads for inspiration?
I’m thinking a Mediterranean pasta salad - cherry tomato, olives, roasted marinated capsicums, olive oil vinegarette, basil leaves, shaved Parmesan. My most made salads are green salad, potato salad, grain salad, pumpkin salad, coleslaw, Greek salad, or rocket and pear, depending on the season and my mood.
I’m being a slug and having way too much computer time
Edit: I did do a little exercise
Ain’t nothing wrong with that. I didn’t leave the house at all since Friday untill the gym today afternoon.
Between my PC, PlayStation and TV, I’m slugging it hardcore.

My usual veg guy is The Fungus King. If I wanted weirdly specific varieties of foraged mushrooms those were also an option. I bought Weirdly Specific Foraged Stuff last week!
In a situation like that, it pays to be specific
The Fungus King sounds like a great street name
He’s a lovely guy, but I swear every time I go in there he’s rearranged the displays to make room for another kind of mushroom
Mushroom roulette
If looks could kill
Waiting for her chicken dinner to bake
Is she making strange cat noises?
Justin gaethje did it baby. What a legend
I did not want to look
Someone on Hinge sent me a two minute long voice recording of him beatboxing after I asked him what kind of music he makes. He was good at it but it just felt like a mating call as opposed to the whole getting to know each other thing that typically happens. 🤟💀
Mating call LOL that’s amazing.
Are you supposed to respond with an RnB vocal hook in return 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Maybe that’s what I should’ve done but clearly we aren’t a match
I left the back wooden door open last night for some air circulation.
Too late to get the smell out of the house now, so I’m pretending it’s not so bad.
I left a window open. Same problem.
So smokey. I wanna open the windows because it’s cool outside, but I don’t want he smoke In the house. Also no washing today, clothes will reek if dried outside.
I left mine outside last night. whoopsidoodle.
At the beach last night you see the column of smoke from the otways.
I finally cracked the doors for a cross breeze and it’s cooler outside than it is in
Yep
I’ve just been going through my bills and realised Coles accidentally gave me a free chicken in my last order. I ordered and paid for two, they gave me three. I didn’t even realise because I’d kept changing my mind about how many to get and didn’t remember how many I’d actually ordered.
Winner winner chicken dinner
sometimes they will give 3 if they are small
They were all within the weight range ordered, one a touch bigger. They are also charged per kg and they only entered the equivalent of two of them. My guess is the shopper grabbed one, realised it was a size too big and accidentally put it into the bag instead of back in the fridge.
win 👍
I take a little bit too much joy in letting random small children I’ve never met before choose my weekly flowers for me
What did the wee one choose for you today?
Purple sweet Williams. A very pleasing decision, well done tiny helper
Nice choice kiddo
The adorable award goes to you and your tiny helper.
I like kids. I would be a terrible parent, but I genuinely like kids. I try to make time and space for them if I can
A random ish reminder that hot sugar is terrifying stuff. I will have homemade nutbars in the not too distant future.
I considered making some for sugar wax but I do not dare. That stuff is sweet napalm
strongly suggest not applying to legs
Only to nuts
Faaaaarttttkkkk
